2011 Fujigen FGN JTL-5M Telecaster Blonde & New Hard Case

£519.00

JAPAN IMPORT

This Telecaster from Fujigen-Gakki Japan is a cracker in Vintage White. It's in overall very good condition with a few nicks around the edges but it has little wear, is all original and plays really nicely

The Fujigen JTL-5M Telecaster is a lower price than the equivalent "Neo Classic" model but there's not really that much to choose between them. The JTL has a Basswood body rather than an Alder or Ash one & it doesn't have the compound radius on the fretboard but it's a flatter 250 mm anyway and a nice "U" shape which is lovely to play. Otherwise it's pretty much the same. Everything is made in Japan

As stated many times, due to courier damage, all my guitars are shipped in hard cases (usually new) this one being a plain black one. I do have a tweed option and these are a little dearer (Extra £12). If you prefer that, please email me for details. If you are collecting, I'm happy to knock off the price of the case (About £30) & I may even have an old gig bag you can have to take it away in

So to sum up, an excellent guitar from Fujigen Japan. This model is impossible to find here in the UK unless you import it. Why not play something that's just a little bit different?
